Leadership of Inclusive and Sustainable Cultural Organisations: A Practical Guide is the first book to provide guidance on how to lead cultural organisations that are inclusive, diverse and sustainable, and responsive to the public, their communities, their own staff, and to popular movements.
The book’s seven parts cover the qualities and skills a leader needs, and practical advice on how to develop an organisation that is sustainable, inclusive and diverse. It covers the role of the governing body, how to create an organisation that is constantly learning and adapting, how to deal with political, public and financial pressures, and what external sources of support they can call on. Each chapter is devoted to a specific issue that might be encountered on the leadership journey, and is extensively cross-referenced to other relevant chapters.
Including a list of helpful suggestions of useful and practical publications for further reading, Leadership of Inclusive and Sustainable Cultural Organisations is a unique guide to cultural leadership. This book is an essential resource for all cultural practitioners with a leadership role within an organisation or aspiring to such a role. It will also be instructive to students of cultural heritage management.
